Austin Drinkall, son of the company’s founder William Drinkall, has run the company with a “customer first” philosophy. Our customer needs perfect quality, our customer needs technological support, and our customer needs great value. Internally, the only way to give our customers what they need is with outstanding teamwork, commitment, and a relentless drive for improvement.

Pursuit of this philosophy has lead to several quality milestones. Preferred vendor status with Chrysler in 1986, GM’s Spear 1 in 1987, GM’s Target for Excellence in 1990, Ford’s Q1 in 1991, Chrysler Pentastar Gold in 1995 and 1996. Our latest achievement was the third party certification of both plants to the rigorous QS 9000 standard (SBP in January 1997, TMP in July 1997).

Both manufacturing facilities are easily found. South Bend Plastics is just a few minutes south of the Indiana Toll Road in North Central Indiana. Technology Molded Plastics is just a few minutes off the U.S 65 in North Central Alabama. Both plants are within 25 minutes of full service airports if emergency transportation is required.
